    Ordered Sunday for delivery last night - none available (order processed at ASDA Great Bridge, West Mids).
    If it's cheap, I'm cheerful!

    I doubt that. The glenmorangie distillery is near Tain on the Dornoch Firth. It's a long way from Speyside I'm afraid but it could easily have come from a well known whisky "name"

    Never got the Malt Whisky, but they substituted them with Asda Scotch Whisky for the same price, should have been £8.98 a bottle!

    Just a quick THANK YOU to Chopra for the original posting. I placed an on-line order yesterday (thought I might as well do a full shop) and the shopping and whisky has been delivered this afternoon. Hubby is dead chuffed , he says at a fiver it is more than acceptable. Cheers!

    ps Thanks to the person who posted the code for free delivery too x

    I too took the plunge and have bought 3 bottles of the stuff. Taste's rather nice. Asda Walsgrave Coventry had atleast 50 bottles on the shelf yesterday.

    Hic. Hic.

    Ordered 6 bottles on Monday - Had a call from my local store this morning (High Wycombe) to say that they did not stock this so could not supply! Offered an alternative at £20 odd per bottle. Told them to cancel the order but that I would be contacting Trades Description people. Phoned their Customer Services on freephone and they gave out the usual garbage - order subject to availability in local store. Promised to phone me back!

    Received a call back from Customer Services only 5 minutes after my call to them. Apparently this offer was available in ASDA Superstores only! BUT they still have a small amount left in stock at the Central Depot and are asking the grocery manager at High Wycombe if he will accept some! Then they will reinstate my order - pretty good CS I'd say - even if it doesn't work!

    The Glenmorangie Company own Glen Moray, which is a Speyside distillery.
